[daily issues] Daily Issues Report - 2026-01-27

[github-actions[bot]]

Two key signals stand out today: issue volume remains extremely high (1,000 issues opened in the last 30 days, 382 in the last 7), and the open backlog is still lean at 62 issues (6.2%). Average time to close is under a day, which suggests throughput is keeping pace with intake.

The largest cluster is concentrated in bug/failure reports, with a meaningful secondary cluster around tests and workflow behavior. Label coverage remains generally strong, but 108 issues are still unlabeled and 406 have no assignees, indicating triage and ownership gaps worth addressing.

📝 Recommendations

1. Triage the 108 unlabeled issues to maintain label-driven routing and reporting accuracy.
2. Assign owners for the 406 unassigned issues to prevent stalled follow-up.
3. Review the bug/failure cluster to identify any recurring failure modes that can be addressed with workflow hardening.
